AE Webinar Ep 6: Digital Twins for accelerated Product Development

Dr Mark-Paul Buckingham is the Managing Director of Xi Engineering Consultants Ltd
By combining the real and virtual world we can assess products in much greater detail and gather a greater understanding. Historically a product was only measured before it left the factory and if it returned broken after use. Today we can continuously collect data to improve or understanding of its usage, optimise its requirements for maintenance and improve future product generations. Combining this with a virtual version or Digital Twin allows rapid development in an accelerating world.
